He has portrayed Devon Hamilton on the CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless since June 2004.[4] He won the 2007 Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series, and earned nominations for the same award in 2006 and 2008.[4][5] After being nominated for the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actor in a Daytime Drama Series from 2005 through 2008, James won the award in 2009.[4][6]


James was a guest star on the drama The Vampire Diaries during its second season as warlock Luka Martin.

He is best friends with his The Young and the Restless co-star Christel Khalil.[9] Saying about their friendship: "Christel and I have practically grown up together and have experienced some of the same things in our adult lives. We've always had each other's backs. I'm an only child and Christel is the closest thing I have to a sibling."[10][11] James is the godfather to Khalil's son, Michael Caden.[12] He is also godfather to his other The Young and the Restless co-star, Daniel Goddard's eldest son, Ford.[13]
